Cobra Raven

Post by scoobydie »

Just been delving through the comic archives and have found the "Battle for the Skies" story.
This aircraft looks amazing :), bit like a Striker .............

And then I got to the end of the story and CC decides that after their all destroyed he ain`t

Oh well , one story doesn`t justify production, shame really.

The Cobra boats in Sea Wars remind me of the later Devilfish too.

Baron, in which issue (and date) was that story? I would like to read it! Thanks for posting about it!

I have a question also about the Action Force Night Raven.

The Night Raven was shown in the 3rd catalog for Action Force (GI Joe style Action Force). But I have yet to see a boxed one - even a picture of one... Can anybody confirm (with a picture) that the Night Raven was indeed released for Action Force?

(I am betting that is was - but I sure would like to see one :-) (I am also looking to buy one if anyone has one for sale - It's the last Action Force boxed vehicle that I need).

Thanks!

No, Baron, no worries - I am not bidding... The Box is a GI Joe box and I am looking for an Action Force box.... :-)

(BUT... if the box does show any signs of having been imported to the UK at the time of release, then wow yes, I would take you up on your offer!!! Thanks!)
